OCA Exercise Tolerances Flashcards
Climb
- Heading ± 5 degrees, airspeed ± 5 knots
Climbing Turns
- To a predetermined altitude, airspeed ± 5 knots, height ± 100 feet
Straight and Level Flight
- Heading ± 5 degrees height ± 100 feet.
Level Turns
- At least 180 degrees left and right to a predetermined selected heading ± 5 degrees.
Descent - Heading
± 5 degrees, airspeed ± 5 knots.
Descending Turns
- To a predetermined altitude, airspeed ± 5 knots, height ± 100ft.
Limited Panel
- Using ASI, VSI, Standby AH compass turns ± 20° initially then ± 10° speed ± 10 kts, height ± 200’.
Unusual Attitudes
- Immediate recognition and correct recovery from climbing and descending turns.
En Route Tracking
- ADF ± 5 degrees, VOR ± 5 degrees,
En route tolerances are subject to consideration of bends of fluctuations of track guidance and within the rated coverage of the navigation aid.
Holding Procedure
- Tracking tolerance is that applicable for the en route standards for the applicable aid. Attitude ± 100 feet.
Turns are to be conducted at 25 degrees angle of bank or Rate 1 (whichever is lesser) except that the pilot may increase or decrease the angle of bank to make good the desired track.
Departure and Missed Approach
- Tolerances are as for instrument approach procedures
DME Arc Arrival Procedures
- ± 1nm of arc and descent on crossing designated radials. Tracking standards are those for the appropriate navigation aid.
Initiation of Missed Approach Procedures
- Up to 3 seconds for recognition and up to 3 seconds to initiate climb or turn, or both, as appropriate.
Angle of Bank and Rate of Turn
- Generally for all procedures except circling approach, 25 degrees angle of bank or Rate 1 (whichever is lesser) except that the candidate may increase or decrease the angle of bank to make good the desired track. Circling approach, 20 degrees angle of bank or Rate 1 (whichever is lesser).
NDB Approach
- Altitudes ± 100 feet reducing to a maximum of + 50 feet and not below MDA. Tracking ± 5 degrees and when within 5 degrees of the inbound track, descent may be commenced, reducing to ± 3.0 degrees in the final 300 feet to MDA.
VOR Approach
- Altitudes, ± 100 feet reducing to a maximum of + 50 feet and not below MDA. Tracking ± 5 degrees, and when within 5 degrees of the inbound track, descent may be commenced, reducing to ± 2.5 degrees in the final 300 feet to MDA.
VOR Approach
- Altitudes, ± 100 feet reducing to a maximum of + 50 feet and not below MDA. Tracking ± 5 degrees, and when within 5 degrees of the inbound track, descent may be commenced, reducing to ± 2.5 degrees in the final 300 feet to MDA.
ILS Approach
- LLZ tracking, left or right one quarter scale from FAF or FAP onward. - Glide path (slope), from FAF or FAP onward, one half scale above, one quarter scale below, reducing in the final 300 feet to DA to one quarter scale above and below, go around commenced not below DA. - Knowledge of LLZ procedure.
Rnav APP
Correct programming & data check
Tracking 1/2 scale to 300’ abv MDA/DA, then:
1/4 scale to MDA/DA
LNAV only: advisory alts within 300’
LNAV/VNAV: Vpath within 1/2 scale, missed appr not below DA.
Respond correctly to GPS INTEG, RAIM, POS UNCERTAIN or FMS failure.
Missed approach Proc
From minimum alt IAW proc for aid.
HDG +- 5 deg
